Nearly a dozen children gathered Wednesday at the Mt. Pleasant Public Library for Story Time with Therapy Dogs.

The weekly story hour featured Cindy Porterfield and Rylee, her two-year-old German Shepherd from Youngwood Top Dog Therapy Dogs.

The children spent time playing with Rylee before librarian Rose Eckman read three dog-themed books. After the stories, children had a chance to color a paw print or draw their own dog.

The weekly story hour is Wednesdays from 1:30-2:30 p.m.
